Realms In The Firmament
chapter-1625

The Glaze Sky was behind the two clans, which was incredibly powerful. In fact, either of the kings of the two clans was too powerful for the Monarch’s Hall!

It was a compliment to Ye Xiao to even mention them as possible enemies. The two clans could destroy Ye Xiao with a breath.

They were so much stronger!

“I am far from well at the moment. How can you treat me so ruthlessly? I like you…” Chihuo murmured.

“Come on. Cut it off. I don’t care what you say. I don’t want you to like me… Wait, why do you eat their eggs? You have eaten many phoenix eggs, haven’t you?” Ye Xiao didn’t understand. “You know it is not the right thing to do. Don’t you see what trouble it could bring you?”

Chihuo looked embarrassed. He kept his mouth open, but couldn’t say a word.

“The eggs of the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan were their babies…” Ye Xiao frowned and stared at the old man. “You have eaten their children… That is unacceptable and dishonorable… Now, all of a sudden, I am on your side. If you keep eating other’s children in the future, it will be my fault…”

“They will never forgive you for this! What is wrong with you?” Ye Xiao was upset.

The old man was one of the Seven Colored Lords, one of the most powerful and privileged people in the world. Why would he do such a stupid thing?

That was unacceptable and hateful!

No matter what the old man said, he was guilty!

“Oh… Let me just be honest with you. If I had a choice, I wouldn’t do that…” Chihuo made a long sigh and said, “But… My martial art… It reached a certain stage, and I needed the essence of dragons and phoenixes…”

Chihuo smiled bitterly and said, “People always think that we are equal, the Seven Colored Lords. They think we are more or less the same powerful, only slightly different in martial arts. Well, they don’t know… I have been stuck at this level for seventy-eight thousand years… The other six men have surpassed me a long time ago. Because of me, the Seven Colored Lords get lowly ranked in the Human Realm Upon Heavens…”

Ye Xiao was a bit shocked. He said, “Is it Fire of Dragon and Phoenix?”

Chihuo was surprised. He looked at Ye Xiao and said, “Kid, you are at a very young age, but you are already such a great doctor and you even know about the Nine Sky Golden Qi and the solution to resist it. Now, you are telling me you know about the Fire of Dragon and Phoenix as well! That is extraordinary! You must have collected a lot of information! I am impressed!”

Ye Xiao looked pretty depressed about it, but he smiled and nodded.

It was difficult to settle in the Human Realm Upon Heavens. People didn’t know how much Ye Xiao had worked for it.

Since Ye Xiao got the books about all those ranking lists in the Human Realm Upon Heavens, he had been learning and marked down every detail in those books. He remembered everything.

He had been trying to figure out the truth about every person that was recorded in those books…

He did it so carefully, and he had learned things nearly a million years earlier just to know better about what had happened in this world…

He learned about itinerant cultivators, famous cultivators, people who followed the sky kings, officials in the royal courts… He knew who had capabilities but didn’t have opportunities and who were much more talented than others in the same generation… He spent a lot of time to study it.

He had to do all these things in his spare time because he also needed time on cultivation.

He actually had spent nearly as much time on the study as on cultivating!

Most of the information he got was useless in his life, but he had to prepare. When something happened, it was always better if he knew what was going on.

The stories about the influential figures in the world…

Ye Xiao spent most of the time to learn it.

When Chihuo told Ye Xiao who he was, Ye Xiao knew it. It turned out the old man was cultivating the Fire of Dragon and Phoenix!

“I see.” Ye Xiao made a sigh and felt sorry for the old man.

There were a lot of martial arts in the world. The better martial art it was, the more difficult it was. When Ye Xiao cultivated the Pure Yang Martial Art, he had to stay a virgin for it. Once he had sex, he lost the martial art that he had cultivated for his whole life. That was why Jun Yinglian had stayed lonely for half of her life. If Ye Xiao didn’t get the East-rising Purple Qi in this life, the tragedy might have to repeat. Not only Jun Yinglian but also the other ladies would have to be disappointed, too!

Ye Xiao knew how difficult it was, so he felt pity for the old man again!

When he liked somebody, it had no reason. When he knew what the old man did, he wanted to kill the old man. However, as he knew the reason, he felt sorry for the old man. Men changed, too, not just women. Ye Xiao changed and changed!

“I have chosen a difficult path to go. I don’t want everybody to know it, so I tell them that I am hungry. Chihuo is a guttler anyway…” Chihuo made a long sigh. He was a bit blank, but at least he was serious now.

Because it was really a pain in his heart, so he became serious.

“Does it really taste that good? Well, perhaps… A great cook must be able to make it into delicious dishes. I am just a cultivator. I worked so hard and spent a lot of time to search for the eggs, and I had to tell people that I love to eat it. I can’t complain, can I? Who would understand?” Chihuo sighed and said, “There are many species in the monster clans… Many of them have the blood of dragons and phoenixes… They must have the same ancestor… They share the same bloodline…

“I have been searching for these species and tried everything to extract the essence of their blood… I did it for the Fire of Dragon and Phoenix… That is all… However, after eating a lot for many years, after all the hard work, nothing changed…

“In the recent thousands of years, it stopped improving… I am totally stuck…” Chihuo sighed and said, “I am nearing my death. If I can’t make progress in three years, there will be only Six Colored Lords, not seven anymore…”
